A skeleton tourbillon from Angelus

High-end Swiss watchmaker Angelus recently unveiled its latest creation, Angelus U41. Enclosed in a 42 mm titanium case, the U41 unfolds in a series of black and transparent sections, a frame both minimalist and graphic. The A-300 calibre is a skeleton design and, in order to strike the perfect balance between structural solidity and openwork detailing, Angelus opted for a ‘dual-beamed’ plates and bridges design. The void that separates the two arms from these supporting elements is studded with jewels that accommodate the wheel axes. With a 60-hour power reserve, the U41 comes in two versions: one dressed in orange hues, and another in a range of blues illuminated by flashes of yellow on the minutes hand and minute circle.
